EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vibrant beauty of a Scarlet Macaw, scientifically known as Ara macao. The image, captured by renowned artist William Home Lizars (1788-1859), depicts this exotic bird in all its glory. With its striking red and blue feathers, the Scarlet Macaw is truly a sight to behold. Lizars' handcoloured copperplate engraving brings out the intricate details of this magnificent creature. Every stroke of color highlights the unique patterns and textures that make up its plumage. This artwork is a testament to Lizars' skill as an illustrator and his dedication to capturing nature's wonders. The illustration itself was inspired by Edward Lear's work on parrots, featured in Prideaux J. Selby's "The Natural History of Parrots". Published in Sir William Jardine's esteemed "Naturalists Library: Ornithology". Lizars' contribution adds depth and richness to this comprehensive collection.
